Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Montreal, Line Grenier is the first academic to study the Celine Dion phenomenon as part of her research on fame, and then on aging in popular music.
She discussed the results of her research with La Presse.

"Gradually, critics, even the most virulent, have recognized the length of her career, which is very important, especially in pop. It has also been difficult not to salute her work ethic. The first making-of documentaries appeared and, in the case of Céline, we could measure the degree of success of the Quebec team", says Line Grenier listing the elements that have allowed Céline to rise to the rank of "national hero".

"A magazine like L'actualité that places her in the rank of national hero like Maurice Richard, it does not evacuate all critical discourse that has been worn in the past, but it says it can be seen from another angle."

"She did not leave anyone indifferent. We hated her or loved her, including people who were not interested in her music. This is where the phenomenon took its full extent and put forward a mode of celebrity that was not strictly related to the fact of pop" says the professor.

Idolator: The 30 Best Music Videos Of 2018 (So Far)

2. “Ashes” – Celine Dion
Celine’s Deadpool contribution is a soaring ballad, and the accompanying video provided a rare moment of levity in an action-packed year. Watching her perform the evocative anthem as the superhero dances across the stage is absurdly powerful, hysterical and brilliant.http://www.idolator.com/7682377/best-mu ... -half-2018

Celine has made me laugh again with her jokes she's so funny)
P.S: she should sing Maria Maria Carlos Santana's song
P.S2: I'm Alive still sounds not good. But speaking about the concert in a whole, Celine is still on fire.

I am always amazed at how she can effortlessly remember to sing the reduced/edited version of this song - it is edited so weirdly that the natural build-up of the song verse and middle 8 is destroyed and I would always be afraid of forgetting which parts were cut and end up singing the wrong lyric....
